Flattley Pedals has introduced the JK Fuzz, based around the classic 1960s Fuzz Face-style silicon transistor circuit with modern updates to improve its functionality.
Flattley’s new silicon fuzz pedal includes an input buffer and an additional post fuzz tone control. The inclusion of a buffer means the pedal can be placed anywhere in a chain of pedals without changing the behaviour of the fuzz circuitry, unlike the original.
The JK Fuzz pedal’s red halo light ring diffuses the light when the effect is engaged, so you can avoid being blinded by standard LEDs. It comes with an aluminium foot topper to provide more real estate for contact when switching the pedal on and off during quick changes when playing live.
All Flattley "Platinum Range" pedals are hand processed in Flattley’s paint shop, with a strikingly unique finish.
The JK Fuzz includes this control set:
Volume: Adjusts the final volume of the effect. It can be used to adjust the balance between bypass and effected signal or to boost the volume to make lead breaks really punch through.
Fuzz: Controls the amount of gain/distortion created by the fuzz part of the circuit. Maximum fuzz is control clockwise but there are a number of sweet spots to be found with fuzz midway and varying the predrive control.
Bright: Classic 60s fuzz tone, fully anti-clockwise allows all frequencies through, turning control clockwise starts to remove the bass frequencies to achieve a very bright tone. A simple passive post distortion tone control, similar to a guitar tone pot, allows the treble of the fuzz circuit to be tamed.
PreDrive: Part of the internal buffer, this control allows the input signal frequency response to be varied before it is distorted by the fuzz section of the pedal. Maximum predrive boosts the bass of the input giving the fuzz more to work with, minimum predrive thins out the signal for a more typical 60s fizzy distortion.
Other features include:
- 9-volt external power operation (no internal battery option)
- 20mm red anodised aluminium custom etched control knobs
- Red halo light ring installed
- The JK Fuzz comes with a red custom etched aluminium foot topper
All Flattley pedals are handmade and hand wired in the UK using the highest quality components.
The Flattley JK Fuzz carries a street price of $379/£299. For more information visit flattleyguitarpedals.com.
